A K24 Swapped First Gen CRX is a NA BEAST!
By Aaron Gaghagen and Brian Gillespie

Now that we have the K24 running in Vic's first generation CRX it's time to see how much power it makes. It sounds so good! We also wanted to see how swapping in the big block K series effected the weight balance. After all, it is Vic's race car. It was corner balanced before with the B16 he used to have. Now with the engine and transmission on opposite sides, it will be interesting to see the effect on handling.

To do your own K24 first gen CRX/ third gen Civic swap we have compiled a parts list from this build.
